/**
 * Represents a parsed <l>Location</l> HTTP response header.
 * 
 * <p>
 * Used in redirection, or when a new resource has been created.
 * 
 * <h5 class='figure'>Example</h5>
 * <p class='bcode'>
 * 	Location: http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/People.html
 * </p>
 * 
 * <h5 class='topic'>RFC2616 Specification</h5>
 * 
 * The Location response-header field is used to redirect the recipient to a location other than the Request-URI for
 * completion of the request or identification of a new resource.
 * For 201 (Created) responses, the Location is that of the new resource which was created by the request.
 * For 3xx responses, the location SHOULD indicate the server's preferred URI for automatic redirection to the resource.
 * The field value consists of a single absolute URI.
 * 
 * <p class='bcode'>
 * 	Location       = "Location" ":" absoluteURI
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * An example is:
 * <p class='bcode'>
 * 	Location: http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/People.html
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * Note: The Content-Location header field (section 14.14) differs from Location in that the Content-Location identifies
 * the original location of the entity enclosed in the request.
 * It is therefore possible for a response to contain header fields for both Location and Content-Location.
 * Also see section 13.10 for cache requirements of some methods.
 * 
 * <h5 class='section'>See Also:</h5>
 * <ul class='doctree'>
